Answer:

The probability that the mean daily revenue for the next 30 days will exceed $7500 is 0.0855

Explanation:

It has been given that


\mu=7200\\\\\sigma=1200,n=30,x=7500

Now, the formula for z-score of a normal distribution is given by


z=(x-\mu)/((\sigma)/(√(n)))

Substituting the known values, we get


z=(7500-7200)/((1200)/(√(30)))

Simplifying, we get


z=(300)/(219.1)\\\\z=1.369238

Now, we have to find that the daily revenue for next 30 days will exceed $7500.

Thus, we have to find

P(z>1.369238)

From the normal distribution table, we have

P(z>1.369238)= 0.0855

Therefore, required probability is 0.0855
